How about some Tijuana Brass? I've recently re-discovered my like for instrumental music with a latin flair in the Signature Series re-issue on CD. BTW, how many of you knew that Herb Alpert was the son of a Russian Jewish tailor? I always thought that the group was a mariachi band that "made it"!

Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion: you must set yourself on fire!

listened to a couple of new discs last night - Malajube and Final Fantasy....both nominees for the Polaris Music Prize. I can't speak for the two hip hop albums on the list but the rest of the list is outstanding - really shows to the creativity and diversity of the canadian indie music scene.

I managed to spend most of the day from work today due to a vicious cold front that came through the area dropping huge amounts of rain (1/32 of an inch...maybe) and bringing the temps all the way down into the upper 80s. (Thanks for the forecast weather folks!)

I got a chance to watch John Fogerty's latest (only?!) DVD 'The Long Road Home' and man I really enjoyed it in DTS ... great show and the sound is excellent. For a 60 year old man that guy looks amazing and rocks even more amazing.

Quote:Picked up Wolf Parade and listened to it just last night. Very good.

Knowing your taste in music, Sean, I'm not surprised you like that disc. My personal favorite on the list is Broken Social Scene (i still think the previous albums from Metric and New Pornographers were stronger)....but the french-language Malajube is very, very quickly become a favorite.
